A 5.4 kgkg cat and a 2.5 kgkg bowl of tuna fish are at opposite ends of the 4.0-mm-long seesaw.
How far to the left of the pivot must a 3.8 kgkg cat stand to keep the seesaw balanced?
A uniform, 267 N rod that is 2.06 mm long carries a 225 N weight at its right end and an unknown
weight WW toward the left end (see the figure below). When WW is placed 55.9 cm from the left
end of the rod, the system just balances horizontally when the fulcrum is located 74.7 cm from
the right end.
a. What is w (in N)?
b. If the weight w is moved 25.3 cm to the right, how far must the fulcrum (balance point)
be moved to restore balance?
225 N
Figure 1. A mass rests on the left side of a balance beam.
Two window washers, Bob and Joe, are on a 3.00-m-long,345-N scaffold supported by two cables attached to its ends.Bob weighs 750 N and stands 1.00 m from the left end, asshown in Figure P8.82. Two meters from the left end is the500-N washing equipment. Joe is 0.500 m from the right endand weighs 1 000 N. Given that the scaffold is in rotational andtranslational equilibrium, what are the forces on each cable?

He fills two, non-identical buckets with water and attaches them to a 1.51 m long rod. Since the buckets are not identical, he finds that the rod balances about a point located at a length I 0.0367 m from its midpoint, as shown. The weight of the rod and empty buckets is negligible compared to the weight of the water, and the buckets are not shown to scale.
